REVIEWS:
Kara Chiles - Wilmington Morning Star Sept 1992 "Will McBride is flexible...His band THE QUICK plays anything jazz. He''s willing to experiment...which might be why THE QUICK is developing a following".

Cris Putnam - The Beat Magazine, year 2 edition 4 "a welcome kick-in-the-pants to Wilmington''s ...market. The strong vocals and positive lyrics give this music real pop-crossover potential without diminishing the high level of musicianship... Will McBride proves to be a sterling guitarist, songwriter, and arranger."

Marc Matney - Encore Magazine, "...top-notch musicianship on display here. THE QUICK - another shining facet in the amazing music scene in the Port City".

The Beat Magazine, year 1 edition 12, "Their own unique sound...is multifaceted and dynamically structured. "Dynamic Proportions" is filled with songs of optimism, upbeat arrangements..."

Spectator Magazine, Oct 28, 1993, "Guitarist McBride lays down some sweet electric sounds, with more rock influences than the more traditional jazz language used often for guitar."
